We’re adding more beds and making sure that every Ontarian who needs a bed will have one. This morning, I was joined by Minister Rod Phillips at the Toronto Congress Centre to announce additional surge capacity beds for #LTC residents and hospital patients that need them.

Joined by Doug Ford, I had the opportunity to tour the Specialized Care Centre, which is aiding with the surge capacity for #LTC residents & hospital patients across the GTA. We’ll continue to make necessary investments to ensure those who are in need of a bed, will have one.

I have spoken with Premier Ford to inform him of my decision not to seek re-election and to step down next month as the MPP for Ajax. Please see my statement below. #onpoli
